Kirk went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in the 4-2 loss to the Rays on Wednesday.
Kirk smashed his first home run since June 27 to deep left field off of Cam Booser in the seventh inning. The 27-year-old is looking to bounce back after missing almost all of April and May with a thumb injury and putting up lower numbers than Toronto fans are accustomed to when returning. In July, Kirk is slashing .270/.400/.405 with only has one long ball and four RBI in 13 games, but has only struck out three times.
